Which.

From Philadelphia Record Sept. 18th.
There is not human being who cannot live
without whisky and tobacco. They are I'M
Observation-Disclosures. On the contrary, men,
women and children must be fed, clothed,
housed and warmed. These are necessities
to living.
The so called protectionists want free whisky
and cheap tobacco in order that they may
keep up the prices of clothing, food, coal and
lumber.
The revenue reformers wish to retain the
tax on whisky and tobacco, knowing that only
those who use them pay the taxes upon them.
At the same time they desire to put an end to
overtaxation by reducing the tax on necessa-
ries, the most important of which are the
taxes on the raw materials-wool, hemp,
jute, iron ore, coal, salt, lumber and dye
stuffs.
The tax dispute in nat-shell is: Isit best
to have free whisky or free wool?

Base Ball.

The Baltimore club has had hard luck this
week, or rather the pitchers have. Smith and
kilroy have done excellent work, but stupid
base running and errors have cost them games
they should have won. Louisville beat Balti-
more 2 to 1 on last Friday, and in 10-inning
game on Saturday Baltimore beat Louisville
8 to 3 On Monday the game was 0 to 0 at
the end of nine innings, and darkness pre-
vented further play. Rain prevented game
on Tuesday, and on Wednesday the Balti-
mores defeated st. Louis by 0 to 4. Balti-
more lost two games to st. Louis on Thurs
day, but should have won both. Smith
pitched in both, and the twelve hits by St.
Louis in the eighteen innings, including base
on balls, were very much scattered. The
scores were to and to 2. Below is the
record, including Thursdays games:

A Republican Opinion ofthe knights
of Labor
the Frederick Eraminer, Repu5.

From the Frederick Examiner, Repnb.
The Knights of Labor started out very
brayely to have nothing to do with politics..
They seem now to have nothing to do with
anything else. It was rightly said that the
moment they became political party their
usefulness and reason for being would oeqse.
This has come to pass. They turn up eEerY-
where now as either politicians or disturheFs
of the peace.
